About this map

Port Angeles East and the surrounding rural landscape of Clallam County are depicted here in detail, showcasing a transition from coastal lowland to the high peaks of the Olympic Mountains. Along the north, the terrain meets the Strait of Juan de Fuca at Green Point, while the southern reaches of the map climb into the protected wilderness of Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest. The map captures a mix of residential growth and established agricultural roots, evidenced by the numerous ranches and local meeting places like Fairview Hall and the Blue Mountain Community Hall.

A network of local creeks, including Morse Creek, Bagley Creek, and Siebert Creek, drain the high country toward Puget Sound. Cultural landmarks such as the Cameron Homestead and Little Oklahoma Ranch illustrate the area's history of land use. Smaller named localities like Crane and R Corner serve as nodes in a web of country roads that bridge the gap between the urban edge of Port Angeles and the mountainous interior, including notable landmarks like Lookout Rock and Round Mountain.
